I run a free Superbowl Pool among my friends. It's just for fun, and I provide the prizes to the winners. Last year I had cool keychains that let you store fortunes from fortune cookies. I bought them here:http://fortunekeeper.com/

Now, I need help coming up with prizes for this year. I need something unisex, preferably not more than $15 each. I'd like to order it online because I don't have time to run around and shop.

If you search eBay for pocketwatches under $4, you can find a huge variety for really cheap. I buy them for $2-$3 each (free shipping) and use them to make necklaces, but a pocketwatch can be worn on a necklace chain or as a keychain and there are a ton of styles, ranging from vintage-looking to skulls or footballs or trains. The downside is most of the cheap ones with free shipping have to be mailed from Asia, so it takes a few weeks to get to the US. If you don't mind paying slightly more you can find US resellers with shorter shipping times, if that matters.

Thanks for these suggestions. I like the pocketwatch idea. I'm not keen on the gag gifts idea, I've given out real prizes in the past and want to continue doing so, only I've run out of ideas. I've checked out THINKGEEK and they have a few good ideas but most of the good things are currently out of stock! Please keep the ideas coming, though. I'm probably going to order stuff on Thursday.

Can you get some kind of merchandise from the participating teams? I know the NFL has a website featuring the teams. I went to the Minnesota Vikings site from there (because my son likes them) and they have nice hats for reasonable price.
